New Inbound Capability

PLEASANTON, Calif. — February 6, 2006 — Five9, Inc., the leading global provider of on-demand telemarketing, customer service, and call center solutions for customer interaction management, today announced the immediate availability of Five9 Virtual Call Centre Inbound™, designed to enable inside sales and customer service and support departments to more effectively manage high volumes of inbound calls - improving customer service and team productivity. Additionally, the company announced its flagship product, the Virtual Contact Centre™ will now be named Five9 Virtual Call Centre Suite™.

"Inbound call centers have long been considered a profit drain and necessary evil, but that's now changing with the use of new, flexible on-demand solutions," said Sheryl Kingstone, program manager, Yankee Group. "Technologies like Five9's can help companies create customer-centric inbound call centers that increase sales productivity and bottom-line profits, while offering excellent service which ultimately improves customer satisfaction and leads to repeat business and referrals."

Five9 Virtual Call Centre Inbound enables organizations to better manage inbound calls by quickly ensuring that all incoming calls are automatically routed to the correct individuals or departments through simple and easy-to-setup interactive voice response (IVR) phone trees and "skills groups", and prioritizes calls based on customer type, call type, or other customer-specified criteria. To help organizations provide the best service possible and allow the agent to resolve the call as efficiently as possible, Five9's on-demand solution identifies inbound callers based on their phone numbers, and "screen pops" or displays the caller name and other information to the agent or operator when they take the call. Additionally, call center supervisors can use the call recording feature for proof of a transaction or quality control, and ensure that agents have the right scripts or "worksheets" to best answer customer questions and/or steer the customer into an up-sell opportunity.

"We're using Five9 for our 25 seat inbound call center, and have found it to be extremely efficient and easy to use," said Pedro Guijarro, MIS manager at USCB, Inc., a full-service receivable and resource management company. "We receive about 400 inbound calls per day, and the fact that Five9 can quickly route calls and allow us to quickly resolve customer issues has made us much more productive and able to provide a better experience to our customers."
